Reply:Try Kalanchoes. I think that's waht they're called. Theyre a succulent so they don't need a lot of water (mine got gross unitl I STOPPED watering them, then flowered nicely!), and they grow bunches of red, orange, or pink flowers. Also Ivy and Spider plants only take a little water a week so you can forget about them. And if you have a lot of space, a small ficus might work.
Reply:Silk plants are nice...and you don't have to remember to water them....or worry about indoor animals eating them.
Reply:Pathos and Mother in laws tongues are almost impossible to kill, easy to grow and take a lot of neglect (at least mine do).
Reply:You can also try the Aloe Vera.
Reply:There is a common house plant called "Cast Iron plant," and like the name suggests it can take a lot of abuse. It has dark green leaves and does best in filtered sunlight. I've also found peace plants very easy to care for.
Reply:Try different sizes and types of Cactus Plants, they have fat ones and tall skinney ones that are quite beautiful and some produce very pretty flowers
